Although not truly Mexican and not truly Colombian, this taco always brings me back to laid back evenings on a beach somewhere in Colombia. Sipping on a cold beer or enjoying smooth tequila. As with any taco the key is in the tortilla so I really suggest to go the extra mile and make them yourself with farina masa and water. But if not possible just make sure you re heat the tortillas with a bit of steam so they are not so dry.
